A couple of minutes later… the entire place looked deserted. The only remaining people alive were Blood Domain guild members. Right at this moment, every single one of them stared at an unbelievable system notification that flashed in front of them.

[Ding! Global Announcement: The War for Nine Rivers City has ended!]

[Ding! Blood Domain has conquered Nine Rivers City!]

[Ding! Blood Domain has achieved total victory!]

[Ding! All defending forces of Nine Rivers City have been annihilated or forced to retreat.]

[Ding! Faction Warning: Light Faction morale has decreased.]

[Ding! Faction Notice: Dark Faction morale has significantly increased.]

…

…

…

The notifications continued pouring out one after another, stacking in bright, triumphant crimson across every player's interface. And when the last line finally faded, the entire Blood Domain army erupted.

A deafening cheer rolled across the ruined city. Weapons lifted. Skills flared. Players screamed, laughed, cried, hugged, jumped up and down like lunatics.

No one dared to believe it, but a makeshift guild, barely ten minutes old, led by a man who treated war like a training session… had actually won a city conquest event.

A major Light Faction stronghold, top guilds, elite NPCs, reinforced barriers, tens of thousands of defenders, had fallen to a group of randoms bound together by chaos, panic, and the absolute insanity of one unrivalled monstrous player.

Every player's chat window exploded.

[World Chat]

Brooooo, what do you mean blood domain won a city??? They were made ten minutes ago

??? How ???

I blinked, and the city was gone??

Someone clip the poison lotus thing, please?

Why did one guy delete a whole map? Is this allowed??

Report button does nothing aaaaaaaaa

What the heck? Is Blood God the top player now?

Light Faction players watched the live feed with the same energy as villagers watching a dragon descend on their village. The one-man shit show was simply impossible to accept. How could one person be so much stronger than everyone else? This game was simply broken! Was there even any reason to play the stupid game anymore?

Even major guilds across the continent were thrown into chaos.

"Impossible."

"Rewind the footage! Rewind it again!"

"What do we even counter this with?! A raid group?? A therapist??? How the fuck are we supposed to deal with a poison like this? Get all the fucking alchemists now!"

"They lost 10,000 players to a guy sitting on a lotus."

"…what do we even put in the guild report??"

"Ladies and gentlemen… I believe the correct strategic response is.. 'We're screwed.'"

Completely ignoring all the chaos, Aurora landed dramatically atop a guard tower, wings flaring. She pointed toward the miasmic horizon like a triumphant general.

"Victoryyyyyyyy!"

The Blood Domain recruits screamed back in a frenzy. Kate rubbed her forehead. She had no idea how to manage a guild like this. Players were crying, hugging, rolling on the ground, updating their guild bios, and taking screenshots like their lives depended on it.

"I joined a random party, and now I'm a citizen of a conquered city!!"

"Blood domain forever!!"

"Can we get guild jackets??"

"We need a logo! We need a flag! We need a theme song!"

Kate groaned. "You people were screaming and running away ten minutes ago…"

She looked around to see that Damon had already disappeared. There was only a single message from him. "I am going to grab a few more cities. See you guys later."

Kate did not know which was giving her a bigger headache. The sight of the celebration or Damon's message. What did he mean by he was grabbing a few more cities? Was he going to try and conquer another city immediately? Right now? That did not make sense. Even Damon couldn't possibly do something like that.

Just as she quietly pondered, a new system notification flashed in front of her.

[Ding! Guild Blood Domain has officially declared a Regional Skirmish War!]

[Ding! Guild War Objective: Securing total control of the Skyfall City]

Kate gasped. This time the war did not seem to be compulsary for all the guild members and there was no mention of forced teleportation. However, there was still a war and that news was very real.

Damon was really going to grab a few cities? Just like he messaged her? She had a stinking feeling that it was exactly what he was going to do. Her heart raced. While she knew Damon was anything but ordinary, she also did not want him to struggle and suffer so much. Was he really going to be okay?

Kate had half a mind to teleport to Skyfall city to help him out but she knew she would only end up being a burden especially in current condition. So she silently turned to look at Aurora who was already missing.

Knowing the crazy woman, Kate was pretty sure she was already in Skyfall city by now. She let out a sigh of relief with a small smile on her face. In the beginning it was difficult for her to accept many things but Aurora was not bad at all.

She was a very dependable person. Not to mention powerful. At the end of the day, Kate was glad that the fallen angel was in their corner and as a part of their family.

After all, they lived in a crazy world right now. The old world rules and logic did not apply anymore. As long as Aurora supported Damon and helped him out every now and then, she was more than glad to accept such an unconventional life.
